1. Sidious/Palpatine's character is a lot of people's favorite. He's also one of the most powerful people during this period, lore-wise. Also within lore, he is understood to be the actual Separatist leader by every in-game Separatist character other than the droids. Dooku, Asajj, Wat, Nute, Grievous all knew he was in charge. Toward the end of the war the Jedi even knew him by name and that he was the real leader, though they didn't know he was also Palpatine. He should have the tag and he should have synergies. It felt like a huge oversight that he's a very limited use character without those synergies even before Clone Wars got attention in-game, now it's even more glaring.
2. Bounty Hunter Asajj. Give her NS and BH synergies, make her a light side character. She's given multiple episodes in this iteration of her character as well as a novel. She also looks really cool. Would make a great toon. A lot of people don't care about NS, but those who do really care - kind of like the KOTOR people. And if you did add a grey or neutral faction, she would be a great addition - she is kind of like the dark side equivalent of a "grey Jedi."
3. Quinlan Vos. An old fan favorite from the EU, really solid following in current canon. Would be a lot more exciting than somebody like Mundi.
4. RoboMaul. Make him a scoundrel leader. He speaks for himself. He was also in rebels. Later he can be given Mandalorian synergies if that faction tag is ever added. Give him a passive called "Punishment" or "Motivation" where if an allied scoundrel is evaded, they take health and protection damage but attack again with 50% more damage, and repeat until they land a shot.
5. Hondo. Speaks for itself. Everybody loves Hondo, way more than Wat Tambor or Nute Gunray.
6. Commando droid. Multiple appearances in the show, often cast as the one droid combatant that's ominous and deadly rather than comical or slow.
I think you do a lot better fanservice with a lot more potential to keep the game exciting hitting these notes.

You forgot Krell, he could have been the epic confrontation character requiring clones and seps.
As for Asajj BH - I would prefer releasing her as completely new toon instead of further messing with her NS variant.
